BF2 Special Forces won't let me install it until I have 2.4 gigs of freespace apparently on C: partition as it doesn't seem to be willing to look elsewhere... I made the partition way too small for C: and need to enlarge it... what programs / how do I do so?

Thanks

Yes but you have to pay... I'd rather reformat than spend 40 bucks but I am hoping theres a shareware prog out there... :)

You cannot make your main partition any bigger or any smaller.
For you will corrupt your OS that way (I've done it b4...)

Best to reformat.

Maybe you could take an image of the drive with OS on it and place it onto a second drive, then reformat the first, and then copy it back onto the first.
ex. copy A->B, format A, copy B->A
Dont' know if this makes sense/works at all.

Go Here and download this CDROM ISO and burn it to a disc.

Boot from the CD and run the program "QtParted". It's a partition magic clone and works quite well.
